The Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) Forum and the Frame Relay Forum (FRF) will merge. The combined organization will be known initially as the MPLS and Frame Relay Alliance. Andrew G. Malis, chairman and president of the MPLS Forum, said Frame Relay has enjoyed enormous success as an access protocol, and with the growth of MPLS in service provider core networks, the two have already demonstrated a natural synergy.
